The Key of This Year Is...?

In the first 1/3 of January in 2011 was full packed with work and small events. I went to grand parents house to meet relatives on 1st, had a whole day shift till next morning on 2nd, went to karaoke on 3rd after work, worked on 4th, had a whole day shift again on 5th (I chose it to get days off as I wanted so I don't complain, but it was a kind of tough, lol), met a friend from the US after work on 5th, hung out in Tokyo with two Canadians on 7th, worked half day and stayed over at a co-worker's "sweet home" with other co-workers on 8th, left there early in the morning next day for snowboard trip and came back home at 10th night. What a busy new years days! I think this year was actually the busiest one, lol. Since I knew that I had 12th off, I could 頑張る yesterdays work, but it was tough actually because I have muscle pains all over the body. Plus, because of those tight schedules, I hadn't slept enough these days. So this morning, I slept like a baby and woke up at 12:00 :P

There is a proverb "一年の計は元旦にあり (New Year's Day is the key of the year)" and I know I haven't planned anything about this year yet, and if I say more, I didn't clean the mess of last year in the end of the year because of my busy schedule (I know it's just an excuse...), but at least, I'll write down some wish lists (objective?) for 2011 here.

●一人旅Maybe everyone in my workplace thinks that's "me" when they hear this word. I'm not thinking of stopping this until my life completely changes and it's not available anymore. I'm still not sure if I get a chance this year...but hopefully I do. This is an ultimate single play that makes me feel alive. I go, I see, I eat, I feel, I live...I meet something, it influences me, and I'll be someone.

●自立Human can't live alone. But beside being helped by someone, everyone has to be independent in some degree. As a girl who already reached around the age, I know that I really have to become one of them. For the reason of student loan, I haven't moved out yet, but the reason will disappear soon because I already paid back almost all of it. I'll finishing it in a few months and it means that it'll be done earlier than I expected. Since I don't like the status "having a loan", I decided to pay it back in 5 years when I started working. But it'll actually be done in 2 and half years since I started repaying. The original debt is roughly 2.6 million yen and I saved up a million yen beside paying it back. I also have been spending money on things like clothes, traveling, dining out etc. I think I'm doing well enough for my salary v(^_-)-☆ However, it's because I live with family. I won't have loan anymore when I finish paying, however, I'll get more expenses just to live once I move out. I'm not sure if I really leave house since I'm getting someone to "feed" just on paper from next month and if it's possible even if I move out...anyway, we'll see.

●恋愛・友達As a girl who is missing the wave of marriage and becoming what is called a loser in general (lol), I think there will be chances to do something with friends (like attending wedding parties and stuff) more than doing something about myself if I talk about events. I think the marriage boom is still there this year as well, the topics related to such things never stop when I talk with friends around my age. There are lots of things that I want to tell, but I'm refrain from posting it here because I feel stupid to write it here now. At least, I want to become a girl who is attractive as a human and can make people around me smile :)

●仕事There is not so many things I can say about this, because it's still just a way to live for me...At least, I have to be motivated for it...definitely.
